First, note that x is undefined at 5. / x ≠ 5
Second, replace the inequality sign with an equal sign so that we can solve it like a normal equation. / Your problem should look like:
= 0
Third, multiply both sides by x - 5. / Your problem should look like: 3x - 5 = 0
Forth, add 5 to both sides. / Your problem should look like: 3x = 5
Fifth, divide both sides by 3. / Your problem should look like: x =
Sixth, from the values of x above, we have these 3 intervals to test:
x <
< x < 5
x > 5
Seventh, pick a test point for each interval.
1. For the interval x <
:
Let's pick x - 0. Then,
> 0
After simplifying, we get 1 > 0 which is true.
Keep this interval.
2. For the interval
< x < 5:
Let's pick x = 2. Then,
> 0
After simplifying, we get -0.3333 > 0, which is false.
Drop this interval.
3. For the interval x > 5:
Let's pick x = 6. Then,
> 0
After simplifying, we get 13 > 0, which is ture.
Keep this interval.
Eighth, therefore, x <
and x > 5
Answer: x <
and x > 5

Looking at the diagram, you have a regular pentagon on top and a regular hexagon on the bottom. Towards the right of those figures, a side is extended to create an irregularly shaped quadrilateral. And you want to fine the value of the congruent angle to the furthermost interior angle. So let's start.
Each interior angle of the pentagon has a value of 108. The supplementary angle will be 180 - 108 = 72. So one of the interior angles of the quadrilateral will be 72.
From the hexagon, each interior angle is 120 degrees. So the supplementary angle will be 180-120 = 60 degrees. That's another interior angle of the quadrilateral.
The 3rd interior angle of the quadrilateral will be 360-108-120 = 132 degrees. So we now have 3 of the interior angles which are 72, 60, and 132. Since all the interior angles will add up to 360, the 4th angle will be 360 - 72 - 60 - 132 = 96 degrees.
And since x is the opposite (or congruent) angle to this 4th interior angle, it too has the value of 96 degrees.</span>
Here we are finding x, given the angle and adjacent side. To find x we will use the function cos as cos = a/h.
So let's do cos(35°) = 15cm / x
cos(35°) = 0.8 (1 dp)
x = 15 cm / cos(35°)
x = 18.3 cm (1 dp)
